Have you ever heard that saying, "If you want some Have you ever heard that saying, "If you want something done, give it to the busiest person you know"?   Well, that's what kept running through my mind when we interviewed Laura Briggs (@authorlaurabriggs ) for today's episode of the Business of Writing podcast.   Laura started out as an inner-city highschool geography teacher. Today, she's the author of three books, the creator of multiple online courses, the founder of a non-profit AND she still writes extensively for clients.   She's cheerful, capable and just gets on and does the damn thing — and she's bringing a whole lot of new freelancers with her.   In fact, she's doing such great work empowering freelancers that Upwork gave her $20,000 so that she could do even more of it. This episode is MEATY. Make sure you've got a notebook handy, because Laura dishes out gems left and right on growing your freelance biz without going crazy or burning out aaaall through the conversation.

There's a lot bad talk goin' on . And I'm not tal There's a lot bad talk goin' on . And I'm not talking about words that fill up your swear jar. (I do love me some strategically placed obscenities) I'm talking the bad talk that fills up your head with imposter syndrome, anxiety, creativity blockers, and insecurities. Negative self talk 'aint no joke. It's directly responsible for the head trash that stops us from confidently producing great work and achieving our goals. We know it's powerful. We know we shouldn't do it... And yet, it's a hard habit to break. Something as seemingly innocuous as muttering "Uhg. So stupid" when you spill your coffee can compound immensely when combined with dozens of other little "bad talk" slips throughout the day. But you can stop the vicious cycle.
